"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Allright guys so basically heres the story. I agreed to fill up this chicks mp3 player since she saw mine and knows im into music and stuff. So yea, I agreed and told her to bring it to school. This was wednesday. So then thursday came by and she said she forgot it. Then friday came and I asked her if she brought it and she said she forgot it. She then offered to drop it by my house, but I live wwwaaayyy far away from her and pretty much everyone else so we didnt wanna do that, then she gave me her phone number and told her to call her to remind her to bring it.

And that is pretty much it. I'm not completely sure what to do, or what the best thing to do right now is, so I need some advice on whats the best thing I can do in this situation. I was thinking about calling her Sunday afternoon.. Calling her, ask her what shes up too, maybe how was her weekend, etc (these questions probably wont go anywhere but I don't know what to talk to her about). Then at the end of the conversation just fill something in about bringing the mp3 player.
So anyways.. what would you guys do or say in this situation? What day/time would you call her?

thanks!
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Don't call her too soon or too often. Don't talk for too long. Don't wait too long to call her either. Have an excuse to leave that's believable and natural so you're not talking for too long. Say something like, "hey, i'm going to (something fun, cheap, and maybe different from boring movie dates). wanna come?" After she says yes (have the mind-set that you assume she will) then maybe talk a little bit then say you have to go soon. This makes you seem confident to her and increases your chances with her.

Don't show too much interest in what she's doing. Feign interest (no one cares what girls say) in small doses as treats for her when you two are officially going out. Stay an elusive prize for her. Part of being a prize is getting her to try for your attention. Do this by being attractive (and not trying to impress) and not rewarding her efforts too much. Paying too little attention will make her lose interest. If you don't talk to a girl she'll assume you're not interested and look for someone else. Finding that medium is confusing, but with practice, you'll get the feel of what you need to do and it will become as natural as riding a bike.

I'm still trying to figure out for myself when someone is "officially going out" so ask someone else for that help.

Just a tip:

Don't seem so interested in filling up her mp3 player. It's not benefiting you at all doing so, so you sound kind of desperate asking her everyday if she brought it to fill it up.

Personally, I would call her Saturday night and ask her if she wants to hang out and say she can fill up her mp3 player after you guys hang out or something.

NO!

Do not do that.

And why can't you ask her to hang out yet? You're getting too hung up on this iPod. It sounds desperate IMO.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

ahh this is so complicated.
Can someone just give me a good example w/out asking her out already. The reason being is it would be too awkward and i'd like to actually get to know her better anyways.

Dude am a 20 year old late college bloomer. The best advice i can give u is "just ****ing do it". Do it, do it. Dont think about it just do it. When you are talking with her, seem busy and disinterested a bit keeping mistery. Have a mind set of you being the prize with c&f. Treat her no better than your friend at first.. Picture her on the bed and u hitting it doggy style. Get in the mood and just freaking do it. Ask her, what is she doing? Ask her how was her day or her weekend, go on from there and just do it.

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
